yeah mh i get it, certainly for valdes it does not seem like crafting a particular image is her prime motivation here, but her defense of her style of memoir is just kind of bizarre to those of us who, having now heard the whole story, are saying "uh there's really no value in you leaving things hanging in the middle"

In the interest of being completely transparent, I’ve decided to host a Livestream chat on my website for anyone to join tomorrow. I’ll be live, on video, and you guys can ask me anything you want to. I want you to be able to see my eyes when I answer you, so that you can judge for yourself whether I’m telling the truth or crazy. I encourage you to join me, because I am genuinely interested in what you have to say, and hope that you will extend the same respect to me. Come to this link tomorrow, Sunday, January 13, at 6 p.m. MST (8 p.m. EST) and let’s talk about this, like civilized, intelligent people. Or at least not like idiots. Deal?

Posted by Valdes on her "Diary" blog, as linked by estela a few posts above:
I did not ask him to stop and he did not force himself upon me. Therefore, it wasn’t rape. The experience was sad, certainly, and he did remind me during it that he was “in charge” and I had to stop talking back, etc. Yes, this is ugly, and yes it was a turning point for me in the relationship. But it wasn’t “rape”. Not to me. While the cowboy could, at times, be a brutal man, emotionally, verbally and psychologically, and while he did threaten me with physical harm more than once (but never hit me) he was NOT a rapist, to my knowledge. I think that repeatedly referring to him in this way is irresponsible, libelous and, frankly, might get me killed.

I'm sorry but I still am at a loss with this "the cowboy" crap. I know it's a vocation and lifestyle but, damn. If he was a mechanic would this have had the same romantic angle to it?

raaagh @ this bullshit: • Women with curly hair are at a distinct disadvantage online. I have no idea whether men prefer blondes, but I can say definitively that most men prefer women with healthy, long, straight hair. If you have curls and feel comfortable (and look good) straightening your hair, give that a try.

"Height:" *types 5'3"* frustration face. *backspace,backspace* *types 2"* renewed determination face. more mouse clicks. marimbas stop. amy noticeably tired face. clicks 'upload.' upload bar fills up and amy collapses into bed as scene fades out.
scene fade in. it's morning, and amy's computer has transformed into a real boy.
